Non-contact Sensors

The Allen-Bradley Capacitive Proximity Sensors have an adjustable sensing distance and are ideal for challenging applications. Designed to detect standard metal targets, non-metal solids and liquids, they can even sense the presence of some targets through certain other materials, making them an ideal choice in those applications where other technologies cannot be used. Available in cylindrical or miniature rectangular models, these sensors are resistant to humidity and dust and feature improved...

The Allen-Bradley inductive proximity sensors detect metal objects without touching them. This technology is used in applications where the metal object to be detected is within an inch or two of the sensor face. Ideal for use in light-duty packaging applications and the harsh environments in automotive welding equipment or washdowns in food processing plants.

The Allen-Bradley Photoelectric sensors use a beam of light to detect the presence or absence of an object. This technology is an ideal alternative to inductive proximity sensors when long sensing distances are required or when the item is non-metal. Can be utilised in a variety of applications, such as material handling, packaging, food processing, and transportation and are customisable to suit non-standard connectors or cables.

The Carlo Gavazzi capacitive sensors are designed as an industrial sensor used to detect the presence or absence of a target object. Able to detect changes in capacitance often used in industrial applications to detect the presence of a target object. The sensors are easily installed and maintained, with a clear, simple design that makes it easy to diagnose and repair any issues. Available in 12 mm, 18 mm, and 30 mm diameters with both AC and DC outputs as well as plastic and metal housings wit...
